Holiday Grief 2024

December 01, 2024 • Cover Art: "Big" Jim Miller; Program Music: Georgia Sound "Something New" • Season 3 • Episode 19

It can be hard to know how to do things at the holidays when walking through difficult loss. Do you keep it as much the same as possible or do you decide to do things very differently? What will you personally take part in? What will you bow out of? How will you explain your feelings? Will you act strong and joyful in an effort not to dampen the happiness of others? Is it better that you’re there or that you stay away? Will there be anyone who will understand, that you’ll be free to share your sadness with?

Is there a way to keep it special even as we grieve?

Brian offers some ideas, drawn primarily from the work of The Grief Recover Institute and their forty plus years of experience working with thousands of grieving people throughout N.A. and internationally.
